WHY THE LEFT IS UTTERLY USELESS: THEIR PRIORITIES ARE BASED ON A BUNCH OF HOOEY

  • EVERYTHING THE LEFT FEARS, EVERY PROBLEM THEY THINK NEEDS URGENT, URGENT, URGENT FIXING IS, WELL... A BUNCH OF HOOEY.

  • EVERYTHING. THEY AREN'T REALISTS; THEY ARE SURREALISTS!

  • THE LEFTS' WHOLE ENTIRE "POSITIVE" PLATFORM IS BASED ON FANTASY - PURE UNADULTERATED BS.

  • THAT'S WHY THEIR PRIORITIES ARE ALL WRONG. AND WHY THEIR POLICIES ARE A REAL THREAT TO OUR SECURITY, POUR PROSPERITY AND OUR SACRED WAY OF LIFE.

LET'S LOOK AT THE RECORD:

1) "ANTHROPOGENIC GLOBAL WARMING" (AGW) - They call this the most serious most dire and most urgent threat humanity and the planet Earth face. They blame humanity and CO2 for climate change despite the fact that the ice core record proves it's a lagging indicator. OH AND BY THE WAY: Europe is having its SNOWIEST Winter in 51 years.

DISPOSITIVE FACTS HERE.

SO WHY WOULD THEY PROMOTE AGW?

Because it's a way for them to demagogue against industry and free-markets and get us top raise taxes and increase regulations - which just happen to be their long-held policies. NOW THAT'S CONVENIENT!

2) "GROWING INCOME DISPARITY" - Well, this is simply class-baiting; the Left has been trying to ignite a class war since 1848. The truth is there is still tremendous upward mobility ion the USA; people are still getting richer every year.

And if we want to adopt policies to make more people richer faster all we need to do is reduce taxes. A rising tide lifts all boats. (The trouble is the Left wants to sink your boat if your richer than they are!)

3) "THE USA HAS A HEALTHCARE CRISIS" - (AND THE CURE IS MORE GOVERNMENT INTERVENTION) - Well, the truth is we have the best healthcare in the world. And our cousins in Europe - with socialized healthcare have worse care and it's bankrupting them.

We do have many uninsured people about 44 million: 10 million are illegal immigrants (who get free care in emergency rooms - courtesy of us taxpayers!); 10 million are younger people who choose not to buy health insurance; 10 million are temporarily out of work and between coverages. And 10 million need public/taxpayer assistance, which is available through Medicaid and S-CHIP, as it is currently formulated.

This is not a CRISIS
.

We can improve our system. But Having the government run it is not the answer.

4) "OUR CIVIL LIBERTIES ARE UNDER UNPRECEDENTED AND MASSIVE ASSAULT", (BY BUSHITLERCHENEYHALLIBURTION) - I hear this one a lot from my Leftie friends. As if Bush was reading their e-mails, listening to their phone-calls, reading their mail, and getting ready to heard every registered Democrat into a concentration camp. Er um... their HERO FDR did just that - to 50,00 US citizens, but that hasn't stopped them from LOVING FDR and hating/fearing Bush. Go figure.

Bush has endured the worst type of personal attacks, not one of the attackers has been punished. (And don't give me any of that Plame crap: She was outed by ARMITAGE, not the White House, and he told Novak about her to BOLSTER her hubby's import, not to intimidate her and future "whistle-blowers.)

Most have gotten RICH: Michael Moore, Rosie; Joe and Valerie - they've all cleaned up - to the tune OF MILLIONS $. Is that what happens when you attack the fuhrer!? Sheesh.

THE TRUTH IS THAT THE NSA INTERCEPT PROGRAM AND RENDITION HAVE NOT INFRINGED ON ANYONE'S RIGHTS, AND THEY HAVE HELPED KEEP US SAFE.

5) "GUNS ARE THE ROOT OF GUNS VIOLENCE", and we need more gun control - they've calmed down a bit on this but in their heart of hearts you know that they want the sate to make it harder for EVERYONE to buy a gun. And they FEEL this way despite the fact that there is demonstrably NO RELATION between the prevalence of gun ownership in a state and gun crime. And despite PROOF that restrictive gun laws DO NOT LOWER GUN CRIME OR VIOLENT CRIME - THEY MAY EVEN RAISE IT. (MORE HERE.)

BOTTOM-LINE: It is absurd to believe that you can take guns away from law-abiding citizens and male the nation at large more safe. It is wrong to punish uninvolved third parties for crimes they did not commit.

6) "AIDS IS THE MOST SERIOUS DISEASE, and we must spend billions to combat it worldwide!". Well, today's headlines show that AIDS has about 20% fewer victims than they've been ranting about for the last decade.

Malaria kills more people each year.

There are better way for the world to be spending our public health dollars - even in the Third World.

Malaria kills more people each year.

It's time we reassessed how we are spending our international health aid dollars.

7) "THE SERIOUS ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION PROBLEM IS THE ONE SUFFERED BY THE ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS" - and to the Left, the cure is making them legal and making it easier for them to come here and not have to assimilate.

The Left just has this one bass ackwards. The illegal immigration crisis is one suffered by LEGAL immigrants and US citizens. We need to end illegal immigration.

8) "THE WAR ON TERROR IS A BELLICOSE BUMPER STICKER" - and the Left would have us revert to treating it as a law enforcement issue, and by appeasing and/or retreating from the jihadists in Pakistan, Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, Iran, Lebanon. And by doing LESS for our allies in Pakistan, Afghanistan, Iraq, Israel, Ethiopia. Turkey, etc.

If the Left gets its way, then the enemy gets a DOUBLE BONUS: we appease them and punish our allies.

That will make the war EVEN WORSE, and even less likely to be "won" by using the FBI.

And oh yeah, don't forget these surreal Leftist gems:

  • According to the Left that we lost Iraq MONTHS AGO - you;d better ignore all the positive news FINALLY coming out in the MSM. (Just like you have to ignore all the reports of the HEAVIEST SNOWFALL IN EUROPE IN 51 YEARS!)

  • And Saddam was benign at worst and certainly "containable" - (though al Qaeda somehow isn't.)

  • And it doesn't matter if Iran gets nukes because we have deterrence.

9) "THE WORLD HATES US; WE NEED TO BE LOVED, LIKE DURING CLINTON'S ERA" - Well, I'm old enough to remember that Reagan got far far FAR worse treatment from the anti-America crowds in Europe than Bush ever did. Which is to say that we are NOT now hated more worldwide than at earlier times. It's a bogus charge. And the cure that the Left proposes is - CONVENIENTLY - another tired old long-held dream of theirs: having US foreign policy controlled by the UN and the EU. They Left wants more multi-lateralism, as if that was an end in and of itself.

THEY ARE WRONG.

Our foreign policy must be on the side of the right. Together when possible, alone when necessary.

Bush has done this very well, using multi-lateralist efforts to get a good agreement with North Korea, and bilateralist effort to reign in Libya, for example. CALLING BUSH A UNILATERALIST IS BEYOND SURREAL; IT'S HYPER-SURREAL.

But we should ignore what the Left says about unilateralism, and remember that unilateralism is not always bad.

Churchill stood ALONE from 1940 through Pearl harbor. ALONE: NOT A SINGLE ALLY IN EUROPE OR THE WORLD. Churchill's solitude - the lone heroism of the British Empire should be forever remembered as their finest hour, and not a symbol of his political incorrectness, as the Left says today of Bush - (despite the FACT that he is not as hated as Reagan was, and that Europe has become more LIKE the USA and closer to Bush in the last five years; Merkel and Sarkozy are mush more pro-USA than their predecessors.).

OKAY. I could go on but I will stop here - for now.

TIME FOR A QUESTION:

DO YOU SEE A PATTERN HERE!? I do: The Left fears things that are not real, that are phantoms.

As if that was not bad enough, the Left also DOESN'T FEAR things that they should - like global jihad. Global meaning over 10,000 attacks SINCE 9/11 worldwide. Thousands killed - by admitted jihado-terrorists.

And what is the Left's response: retreat and denial and appeasement.

Many people in the USA are tired of Bush and tired of the Iraq War and tired of our oil dollars going overseas to people we don't have much in ciommo9n with - to say the least.

And in their fatigue, the Leftist platform has some appeal.

WHICH MEANS: AMERICA COULD ELECT A DEMOCRAT AS PRESIDENT IN 2008.

NOW THAT IS SOMETHING TO BE AFRAID OF!

Be afraid. Be very afraid.

But don't give into fear. Not of the left. Unlike the Left, you can do something constructive about it. VOTE GOP.
